Red Hills Ranch is located near Kelly, Wyoming. The Grand Tetons are at my back and about 15 miles away. It is magnificent country. You need to go down a long rugged dirt road so you need an SUV but it is worth it to see this fabulous area near Jackson Hole. (Edited in Lightroom, Photoshop and Topaz)
Please comment! Don't say, "Oh there are so many comments, what's the point?" Or "It's all been said already, why bother?" Just let me know you stopped by to help celebrate my latest hit, PLEASE!

This photo is now showing at the top of the Flickr Blog as the top photo! It has been on there for about 24 hours which has greatly increased, (ok, well maybe not GREATLY) traffic to my photostream. Thanks for the phone call yesterday from Boiani to alert me right away.

In springtime beautiful bluebonnets, the state flower of Texas, can often be found along the main and back roads of Texas Hill Country. The Bluebonnet season usually begins in March and ends in May, although in some years blooms can be spotted along the roadways as early as January.
This photograph was taken along the Willow City Loop, a 13 mile-long private ranch road north of Fredericksburg in Gillespie County. The drive is filled with rolling hills, blossoming meadows, charming creeks, and deep green valleys.
When I opened this shot, I had an image in mind for it. Something different from the standard "Lone Tree in a Field" shot.
This wasn't it. But I Like it. Kind of a dream-like quality.
Somewhere on Hwy 25, south of Hollister, California.
Beginning around 1865 John Carmichael Haynes began to acquire large amounts of ranch land in the Osoyoos and Oliver areas. It was one of the first cattle ranches in the Okanagan Valley and he eventually amassed about 22,000 acres. Haynes also was judge as well as customs officer for the Osoyoos/US border crossing.

sometimes there is no accounting for your neighbor's taste in their home design! ...honestly you would think it's for the birds!
Time to start moving the stock down to lower elevations.
Winter is coming, Jon Snow....

This camelback truss bridge crosses the North Fork of the Shoshone River and leads to the UXU Ranch. The 162 foot span, which is a variant of the Pratt truss design, was originally built in 1924 for use near Powell, Wyoming. The bridge itself is a Parker variant of the Pratt design in which the polygonal top chord is built with exactly five slopes. The UXU ranch started out as a sawmill in 1898 and was converted to a guest ranch in 1929. For years the only access to the ranch was a footbridge across the North Fork from the Yellowstone Highway (US 20/14/16). Then in 1968 the bridge was disassembled and moved from its original location to the UXU which made the ranch finally accessible by car. Located in the Shoshone National Forest west of Cody Wyoming, the ranch is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. In 2024 the bridge is celebrating its 100th birthday.

Clydesdale Barn ..... Yukon, Oklahoma ...
The barn was built in 1936. A group of Amish Barn Specialists from Indiana refurbished it at a later date.
Just south of Searchlight Nv is the Walking Box Ranch. The ranch was built in 1931 by legendary silent film stars Rex Bell and Clara Bow. During the 1930s, it covered nearly 400,000 acres and supported 1,800 head of cattle.
Meet Shadow who is as loyal as her name. She is a border collie, heeler cross and is as sweet as can be. She even escorted me back to my truck when I was done taking pictures. I wanted to bring her home with me and I think she wanted to come too. It is funny how you bond quickly with some animals just like you do with some people. I was more taken by her than the new foals. I like to think I captured her true spirit here.
Been so busy and the heat is getting to me. Have to get everything done in the early morning or late at night.
Please let it rain!
Ghost Ranch is a 21,000-acre retreat and education center located close to the village of Abiquiú in Rio Arriba County in north central New Mexico, United States.

My uncle's ranch, and it is part of the history of rural America. We didn't have TV, had one good radio, but we mostly told stories in the evening after a days work. The lost art of telling stories. And, the story starts at what went wrong that morning, things that went good, weren't good material for the evening story.

The late afternoon light shines on the gracefully eroded Kitchen Butte above Ghost Ranch, a cultural and scientific retreat center in northern New Mexico. The American artist Georgia O'Keefe was profoundly inspired by the landscape here, and purchased a house nearby that she used as her summer home for 40 years.
Hay has been cut and rolled on the ranch and snow is piling up in the Sneffels Wilderness. Mount Sneffels (el 14,157 ft) is the high peak to the right of the center.
A mixture of cottonwoods and aspen provide the color in the foreground. The richly dappled reds and browns on the lower hills are clones of Gambel oak.
From left to right: Whitehouse Mountain, Mount Ridgeway, Cirque Mountain, Mount Sneffels, Mears Peak.
Ouray is to the left of these mountains, Telluride is on the other side of Mount Sneffels.
